30.Sh NAME
31.Nm wsp
32.Nd Wellspring touchpad driver
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into
35your kernel configuration file:
36.Bd -ragged -offset indent
37.Cd "device wsp"
38.Cd "device usb"
39.Ed
40.Pp
41Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time,
42place the following line in
43.Xr loader.conf 5 :
44.Bd -literal -offset indent
45wsp_load="YES"
46.Ed
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Nm
50driver provides support for the Apple Internal Trackpad
51device found in many Apple laptops.
52.Pp
53The driver simulates a three-button mouse using multi-finger tap
54detection.
55A single-finger press generates a left button click.
56A two-finger tap maps to the right button; whereas a three-finger tap
57gets treated as a middle button click.
58.Pp
59.Nm
60supports dynamic reconfiguration using
61.Xr sysctl 8
62through nodes under
63.Nm hw.usb.wsp .
64Pointer sensitivity can be controlled using the sysctl tunable
65.Nm hw.usb.wsp.scale_factor .
66.Sh FILES
67.Nm
68creates a blocking pseudo-device file,
69.Pa /dev/wsp0 ,
70which presents the mouse as a
71.Em sysmouse
72or
73.Em mousesystems
74type device--see
75.Xr moused 8
76for an explanation of these mouse
77types.
